Sort of a funny, sort of a lesson. There is the famous book "Eats, Shoots, and Leaves" which explains why it is important to be grammatically correct or risk your statements to be misinterpreted. Here is a different example of misinterpretation.
Go to http://maps.google.com
Click on "get directions"
Enter "Halifax" in the from field and "London" in the destination field.
Observe the instruction given on the 24th step of your journey.
Now, change the destination field to read "London, ON" to see the difference.
Strange, eh? :)
